Product Description

Funny, shocking, true-to-life, even a little magical, these varied and revealing stories use Philadelphia’s iconic neighborhood as their literary inspiration. South Philly Fiction presents a complex and diverse world that defies common stereotypes.

A negligent father bringing the gift of cold french fries, the robbery of a Palestinian street vendor, a young woman remembering teenage love in her embattled homeland, a lost dog surviving while a marriage doesn’t, Olive Garden arguments, snow fights between sidewalk shovelers, priests, loan sharks, backyard bomb shelters, and love on the Orange line. Bound together by the simple map of a city, the characters that live within South Philly Fiction will capture your imagination no matter where you live.
